'1 lie only question was, how they could best promote the in terest of Captain Sir M. Maxwell ; and, speaking as an indi iidnal, be begged to say, that he. knew no better mode than by.the immediate and active canvas; of *every part of the City of Westilmioster. Mr. Jaelcio said that all the Electors of Westminster kneW bf Captain Maxwell was, that he was a gallant officer. Merely for the sake of information, he desired to know what were the qualifications on which this Gentleman's pretension's rested for the high honour he sought. A Naval Officer present said, that so far as public service to his Count6''' constituted a elaimh, he Could, froni having sailed with Sir M. Maxw e ll for eleven 7ears, bear testim o ny to his with to his country's honour in very trying situa tions, both in the Mediterranean, and lately in China.-:- (ApplatiSe.) The CHAIRMAN *fated, that as an Elector had thought it right (very properly) to inquire what Were the qualifications of Sir M. Maxwell, he begged leave to read a paper in Width these qualifications were, set forth. The CHAIRMAN then proceeded to read a n arra ti ve of the gallant Officer's services, which set forth his professional career under their late gallant and worthy liepreSentative, Sir Samuel Hood ; valuer in command cif the-Cyane sloop; his assistance ill the reduction of the 'islands of St. Lucia and Tobago; and his conduct while in conimand Of the Aleette,tri the Mediter'ranean and the Adriatic. The paper. then de scribed tie conduct of Sir M. Maxwell during the late &Mi. bassy of Lord Amherst to China, his firmness in eintitiking the insolence of time Viceroy of Canton, and his coolness and • judgment after the shipwreck' of his k , efsel in the China • leas.—(Great Applause.) The CifmnsfAtc, after.: readi ytars paper, observed to the AiWt r iti g , th 4 t it had been the general practice of the Citiens ref Westminster to return a Naval Officer as one of theirße presentatives, and he knew no one more 'entitled t 6 that Iti;t*hr than Captain Sir M. Maxwell.-t--(Great Applause.) STOCKDALE (of Pall-mall) rose to move a set of Reso lutliFriS in support of Captain Sir M. Maxwell, and observed; that 'al the time of the Meeting WiMuld he better spent in a Caelvds's than in talking, he *mild merely express his stir- Pfise that `fink .Elcto . i. of Westminster should inquire who was Captain ; when the Electors ought to recollect that he bad been the right 7 hand'ifian of Sir Samel Hood on his last canvass for Weitininster. Their City had of late been unrepresented; Br rather misrepresented, and it was now full time to look about for fitter Candidates titan those wild were last before them.—(Great Applause,...) An ELECTOR said, that the g a lla n t Ottiper pow spoken of was of mature age and fixed principles; and as be bad filled a sort of diplomatic office, they might reasonably expect from sound judgment. Mr. HaLefitne said the time had arrived *hen the ElectOrS of Westminster ought to thew whether the popUlatlon . of.the inferior classes could return b o th M e Mb ers f or theft eitk,'Phe time, indeed, had been when the GovernMent returned one Member, and the independent Interest another, and When neither tfotild attempt to nionopoliie the Whole. The GOvern ment Were then unable to shake time interest of Mr. Fox; tnit where could the Electors now look fol• a man of his liberal mind and talents/ Mr. Fox never Would have so far insulted his constituents as to have told them that they should hare had a Parliament every years and the street-sweepers be the electors. It was high time to look for a different cotirse of things than that they had lately seen. He admired Sir SiMuel Rornilly for hiS constitutional princililesi sod sit - M. Maxwell fin- his public Services.—(Applattse,) After a variet . 3,- of other business had beam &Me, thanks were tfitanifuoutly voted to the Chairman, and a Conithittee \vat appointed to Manage the elettion Of Sir M. Maxwell. MR. WILSON'S FRIENDS. AnotheV Meeting of the tiVel:y of London in the interest of THOMAS WiLsoti-, Esq. was field on Sitaday, at twelve o'clock, at the City of Lotidon Tavern, Mr. B.
